the sweepers

 

The sweepers work

Hard under the sun

Burning hot on skin

They labour it on


Work hard for their labour

Energy full in the day

The honest work to live

The right way


They will not worry

About police knocking doors

They have nothing much to declare

They are the sweepers


Only rain they take a break

Under shelters where they can find

No special treatment but their own

Living the honest way


Unlike VIP criminals

They can't live in prison

They will find ways to leave

Pardon Board is the way


With connections and favours

They will try to pull strings

The dishonesty through the systems

The granting of wishes
